[NTLK] "Religiosity in the Abandoned Apple Newton Brand Community"

[Ross Deihm]

"In a pragmatic sense, they see themselves as supporting the best choice for
their needs. However, members also feel that by keeping the Newton viable,
they are rejecting a system that caters to the lowest common denominator and
perpetuates a short life cycle in the name of incremental innovation and
planned obsolescence. They blame this system for the failure of the original
Newton and see it as one reason it could never be reintroduced." - From said
document.

I hate it when a silly thesis hits on very real data.

Anyway, back to ritualistically sacrificing Palm Pilots at my homemade
alter.
